Luke 2: 41-51

In the season of Advent we "trust in a minor key" through lament by naming our place of trust, voicing our pain, and asking God to respond with God's presence.

Psalm 80:1-7

Whether within our own lives or as we look around us, how in this world do we wait with joy? We’ll take a look at the Old Testament prophet Zephaniah’s final chapter as an encouragement. 

Zephaniah 3:14-20

In advent we wait within a tension between Christ is coming and Christ has come. That tension is best met with a posture of intention.

Luke 1:67-79 

Waiting is really hard. During this Advent series, we are focusing on how to wait in a way that "enlarges" us and leads toward more Christlikeness. This teaching focuses on hopeful imagination and humble surrender.

Jeremiah 33:14-16; Psalm 25:1-3

Nehemiah 8:9-12

Exodus 16: 2-3

1 Samuel 18:1-4

Does the Bible have anything significant to say about friendship? Jesus elevates friendship and calls the disciples to imitate his self-denial and generosity. 

Prayer is an intimate pathway toward greater abiding in Jesus. Prayer is rooted in the relational heart of God, centered around four aspects: humility, habit, relationship and transformation.
